TROUBLESHOOTING
GUIDE
•
Why won't my temperature go any higher?
The max temperature is 400 ˚F.
•
How long does it take to preheat, and how will I know when it's done?
We recommend 3 minutes of preheating. You can use the built-in timer to set
a 3-minute countdown.
•
Should I add my ingredients before or after preheating?
It is recommended to let the unit preheat for 3 minutes before adding ingredients.
•
Do I need to defrost frozen foods before air frying?
It depends on the food! Follow package instructions.
•
How do I make the countdown pause?
Press START/PAUSE.
•
Is the basket safe to put on my countertop?
The basket will heat during cooking. Use caution when handling, and place
on heat-safe surfaces only.
•
How do I know when to use the crisper plate?
Use the crisper plate when you want food to come out crispy. The crisper plate allows
for food to be elevated in the basket allowing for air to go under the plate and evenly
crisp ingredients.
•
My food didn't cook .
Make sure the basket is fully inserted during cooking. For consistent browning, make
sure ingredients are arranged in an even layer on the bottom of the basket with no
overlapping. Shake loose ingredients for even crispiness. Cook time and temperature
can be adjusted at any time during cooking. Simply press the up and down TIME or
TEMP arrows to adjust the time or temperature.
•
My food is burned .
For best results, check progress throughout cooking, and remove food when desired
level of brownness has been achieved. Remove food immediately after the cook time
is complete to avoid overcooking.
•
Why is my food blowing around when air frying?
Occasionally, the fan from the air fryer will blow lightweight foods around. To alleviate
this, secure foods (like the top slice of bread on a sandwich) with toothpicks.
•
Can I air fry wet battered ingredients?
Yes, but use the proper breading technique. It is important to coat foods first with flour,
then with egg, and then with bread crumbs. Be sure to press the bread crumbs onto the
food with your hands. Because the air fryer has a powerful fan as part of its mechanism,
breading can sometimes be blown off. Pressing the bread crumbs firmly on will help
them adhere.
•
The unit is beeping .
Your food is done cooking.
•
The screen went black .
The unit is in standby mode. Press the power button to turn it back on.
•
An "E" message appears on display screen .
The unit is not functioning properly. Please contact Customer Service at 1-877-646-5288.
